My wife’s two 27" iMacs will have to wait a bit she relies heavily on Scrivener for her writing, and the developer says that the 64-bit version is buggy, so they recommend not updating at the moment. If I really needed the legacy stuff I still have two old 17" MBPs that I’ve loaded with RAM and SSDs, and they run like new, except faster than new with the upgraded RAM and the SSDs. I started to download the upgrade of OS Catalina from my Mojave. The install files can be found in /macOS Install Data on the destination volume. How to delete partial download of Catalina if not showing in applications. Drag the file to the Trash or right-click and choose Move to Trash. Locate the partially downloaded macOS Catalina file.
